Assuming your top 4 is:

Risto Pilut
Bogo Dahlin

You're going to get a better forward for McCabe than you would Scandella

This team needs scoring and needs it bad

The remaining blue liners:

Bowl-U, Scandella, Hunwick, Guhle, Nelson

can round out the bottom pair

- Stripes77



That's putting alot of faith in bogo's health.

Mccabe/bogo together is kinda 3/4 between them, with their injuries.

Ignore all other 2018 numbers.

THIS is the @NFL stat of the year:

@DeAndreHopkins:
115 receptions
0 dropped passes



DAMN

- Stripes77


The dropped passes stats are (frank)ed up. Benjamin was only credited with 1 drop through 8 games via Fox sports(but their stats page is being updated, so take that with a grain of salt). And he's got 3 or less for the season according to stats.com, he doesn't show up in the top 20 of guys. http://hosted.stats.com/f...eiving&rank=232&year=2018 It's really hard to find dropped pass stats at all, let alone good numbers. ESPN had him at 2 on 9/28. If anyone has a good site for drops I'd love to see it.

Yep that’s some depressing news you don’t want to hear for the new year ..

But On the bright side it’s a new year they can start fresh and start winning again

Next Saturday's game against Boston is a must regulation win.

- Boss34

Samuelsson is a left D


I am almost, key word is almost


certain dahlin plays RD full time next year with risto as the top 4

probably 20 minutes each plus pair up on pp


McCabe and Samuelsson will be the LD

Pilut and Bogo round out the bottom pair

Beaulieu and the legend Nelson are the reserves next fall

I think Hopkins, Julio, Adams and Ju Ju are your 4 best wr's next fall

Thomas rounds out your top 5, only because I think Mike Williams steps up and cuts into Allen's numbers

they all are IMO


when they had the win streak, I said they were fragile


sad thing, they are playing better now then most of those wins but bad luck scoring and Hutton has given up a few that makes you shake your head

Hill is top 3 easily. He was number 1 this year, barely, by half a point, but number 1 nonetheless. As much as I like Thomas, this season was an anomaly with the absurd percentages of caught targets, 85%!, and Brees' completion percentage on top of it. It was also his 3rd year, and that's a thing. It was Hill's 3rd year as well, but it was Mahomes first year, he can only get better, and that's scary.

I don't see it that way

hockey fans will tune in to hockey, basketball fans will tune into basketball

the others, 50:50 what they tune into


if it was football, 99:1 in favor of football

I still view Hill as a gimmick WR with great speed and great play calling around him

5 games since hunt was kicked off, he had 13, 46 and 74 yards in 3 of those games

I still view him as a top 10 wr though

I am talking wr's not wr's fantasy production

2 keepers in a 2 qb league

Mixon 4th
Cleve qb 12th
Aaron Jones 14th
Mike Williams 18th round

Mixon last year of eligibility (drafted 2 years ago 8th, kept as a 6th this year) 4th next year.

Other 3 guys have 2 years keeper eligibility
Cleve qb 12th then 10th 2020


Ppr league.

Leaning towards cleve qb and williams

Because the last place team won the lottery. We would have probably been last place without Jack Eichel.

Not really

There is still learning for Pilut to do but if you need a 2C and Minny needs defensemen

You would absolutely trade McCabe and a pick (not 1st rounder) for Coyle

- Stripes77


No way
Coyle isn’t a “2C”
Idk why ppl think this?
4 years ago he had 21 goals
Since then...
18goals 3yrs ago
2yrs ago he had 11goals in 66games
And this year he’s only on pace for 13goals

Coyle is a “3C” at best now
Is he worth a try?
I wouldn’t hate it. But the price would have to be right
Not McCabe & a pick
More like O’Regan & a pick (like a 3rd)

But why would Minnesota do this? They're 5 points out of a wild card spot

And McCabe is nothing more than a 4/5 oft injured d man.

I like McCabes game but he is on the injury report almost as much as Bogo. Bogo just misses more game.

There is nothing about McCabes game that makes me think he is a top 4 guy on a good team.

He is extremely overvalued by us Sabres fans.

Only because it's 2 qb league

Baker and then flip a coin on Jones and Williams

Gut says Jones

U think Samuelsson goes from college to full time top4 defenseman for us?

I’d be shocked

Kind of surprised by your rea tion to not want him around...why is that?

36 points playing with Lucic and Puljujarvi; 14G / 22A
Two way player
Decent contract for 2 more seasons.

Because he's basically Sam Reinhart all over again

Lack of right d men

It's either risto and dahlin

Or risto and dahlin playing the right

If it's risto and dahlin together that changes things of course
